Baton Rouge, La. – The Southern University Land-Grant Campus is committed to recruiting students near and far. On February 23, 2017, the Land-Grant Campus' SNAP-ED staff partnered with the Louisiana Resource Center for Educators (LRCE) for the ‘Find Your Future Career and Resource Expo.’

The event was held at the East Feliciana Parish Professional Development Center in Clinton, La. Over nine hundred 10th - 12th grade students, from eight school districts, were in attendance. Expo attendees were engaged and eager to learn about careers in Agriculture. 

Over 50 post-secondary exhibitors were represented.
